ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On June 2, 2014, ChromaDex, Inc., a California corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of ChromaDex Corporation, a Delaware corporation, the registrant (“ChromaDex”), entered into an Exclusive License Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Dartmouth College (“Dartmouth”). Under the terms of the Agreement, Dartmouth granted to ChromaDex a worldwide, exclusive, sublicensable right and license to use certain patent rights relating to the Nicotinamide Riboside Assay System, for use in human and animal therapeutics. The Agreement terminates on the earliest of the expiration date of the last to expire patent right. Either party may terminate the Agreement if the other party breaches the Agreement. ChromaDex may terminate the Agreement at any time upon 90 days' prior written notice.
As consideration for the license granted, ChromaDex will make a cash payment to Dartmouth. Additionally, ChromaDex will pay Dartmouth annual license maintenance fees, earned royalties on net sales of all licensed products, payments upon the completion of certain strategic milestones, as well as other consideration associated with sublicensing and manufacturing of the compound.
ChromaDex has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to effectively manufacture and market licensed products.
The foregoing is a summary of the material terms of the Agreement and does not purport to be complete. You should read the complete Agreement, which shall be attached as an exhibit to ChromaDex’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 28, 2014 and, when filed, such Agreement shall be incorporated by reference herein.
